I recently called the local Veterans Affairs office asking about getting a veterans ID card.  I thought I would use it for some places that offer veteran discounts but when they told me that I would have to travel to Birmingham with my DD214, I changed my mind.

Didn't take that when I applied years ago.  Still have it stored away.  Only used it for a year of college after I got back from Nam and to guarantee my first home loan. 

I used the college benefits starting in '72; I guess I must have used my 214 for proof of service.  I don't ever remember having a veteran's ID, maybe it's still in my duffel bag.

Small cardboard card with blue printing. 

I'll have to check the miscellaneous junk drawer where little used collectibles seem to collect and seldom see the light of day.
